Antonio DeMarco joins Freddie Roach

By Felipe Leon

Former lightweight champion Antonio DeMarco (29-3-1, 22 KOs) of Los Mochis, Mexico, but living in Tijuana since the age of fourteen, has joined the stable of famed Freddie Roach at the Wild Card Gym in Hollywood, CA. Prior to Roach, DeMarco was trained for his amateur and pro career by Romulo Quirarte at the CREA gym in Tijuana. DeMarco posted photos on his twitter working the mitts with Roach and confirmed to Fightnews that he was now training in Los Angeles. No word about his next fight and if in fact he will remain in the junior welterweight division as he announced earlier this year.
